However, Tallawahs captain Rovman Powell would lead by example, hitting 10 boundaries in his innings of 67 to take his side to 153-7 after 20 overs.

Trinbago Knight Riders in turn lost the wickets of Sunil Narine and Tion Webster early on, and largely due to superb bowling spells from Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim, were unable to find any fluency as they consistently lost wickets, ending up on 119-8 and losing by 34 runs.

Jamaica Tallawahs lost both of their openers in the Powerplay, and were struggling to score runs in the first 10 overs, before Powell combined with Raymon Reifer in a 90-run partnership stand to aid their side.

Sunil Narine bowled exceptionally well and was rewarded with the wickets of both Powell and Fabian Allen to restrict scoring in the final overs, with the Tallawahs setting a target of 154 to win.

Trinbago Knight Riders once again utilised Narine at the top of the order, but he was bowled in the first over by Amir. After Webster was run-out, Colin Munro and Tim Seifert attempted to rebuild, but eventually both lost their wickets.

Amir struck again to remove Nicholas Pooran as the Knight Riders were unable to build any partnerships, with Kieron Pollard and Andre Russell also falling.

The win means Jamaica Tallawahs have now won three of their first four games, while Trinbago have lost two successive matches. (CPL)
